Suction Pool Cleaner Owner’s Manual ISM926E Rev. A2

Owner’s Manual Congratulations on the purchase of your Hayward automatic suction pool cleaning system. Your cleaner is the smart, ecient way to clean your above- ground pool. Hayward turbine cleaners are powered by your pool’s filter system and are designed to work well with most systems. The performance of the cleaner in your pool will be relative to its power source. Because the operation and performance of the cleaner are system reliant, there is a remote possibility that a service call may be necessary to complete the proper installation of your cleaner. This call will be at the consumer’s expense. Lastly, one or more of the accessories designed for the cleaner, including additional hose sections, might be applicable to your installation. Consult your Hayward dealer for prices and availability. Purchase Date: Serial Number:3 SAFETY WARNINGS DO NOT use to remove large debris in new pools or when dewinterizing. REMOVE cleaner and hose before adding ANY chemicals to your pool. DO NOT swim with cleaner. Store the cleaner in a shaded, safe area. Hoses must be stored straight. DO NOT coil the hose. THIS IS NOT A TOY. Do not use in the presence of children. KEEP AWAY from children and pets. REMOVE cleaner when performing backwash. REMEMBER safety first.

Please complete the following steps to prepare your pool for installation: DEBRIS Remove any large objects and excessive debris from the pool. WATER LEVEL Confirm that water level is at the recommended level. WATER CHEMISTRY Make sure water is properly balanced and that the pool is free from algae. FILTER Clean or backwash the filter. Clean the skimmer and pump baskets prior to installing the cleaner. pH: 7.2 - 7.6Chlorine: 1.0-3.0 PPMTotal Alkalinity: 80 - 120 PPM6 INSTALLATION Sizing Suction Hose Step 1 Connect hose sections. Note: Make sure all connections are tight to prevent air leaks. TIP: Wetting the hose ends will make it easier to connect the hose sections. If optional leaf canister is purchased, install between 1st and 2nd hose sections starting from the wall connector or skimmer.7

Step 2 Pull hose to farthest location in the pool opposite the wall connector or skimmer + 2 extra hose sections. Step 3 Fill hose completely with water. Insert flow gauge onto the leader hose. Attach the C-clip of the gauge onto the 1st hose section. Make sure the flow gauge is under water. FLOW GAUGE C-CLIPLEADER HOSE FIRST HOSE SECTION TO SKIMMER OR VAC-LOCK +28 INSTALLATION Step 4 Connecting to skimmer: Connect the skimmer cone adapter to tapered male end of the first hose section. Note: Hose end goes into cone adapter. Step 5 Check the water flow reading on the flow gauge. The black disk should be between the “MIN” and “MAX” markings. If the disk is in the proper location, move on to step 6.

CONE ADAPTER9 If the black disk is outside of the box on the “MAX” side and you have connected your hose to the skimmer, reduce the vacuum/ water flow by using one of the following:

• Suction valve(s) in the filter system (if equipped with)

• Hayward regulator valve

1. Remove the hose from the skimmer cone adapter.

2. Close the regulator valve by rotating the blue collar clockwise

3. Insert the regulator valve onto the skimmer cone adapter and the

hose end into the regulator valve.

4. Turn the filter system on and allow it to evacuate any air in

5. Turn the blue collar counterclockwise until black disk appears

between “MIN” and “MAX” markings. Reading Too High?10 INSTALLATION Reading Too Low? An initial vacuum reading that is TOO low to meet the water flow setting necessary to operate the cleaner is indicative of a system problem, and not a problem with the cleaner. The regulator valve cannot be used to INCREASE the initial vacuum reading. Step 6 Submerge the cleaner into the water to remove all air.11 Step 8 Turn pump on and observe cleaner. Step 712 IMPORTANT TIPS Periodically check the water flow/vacuum to be sure that your cleaner is operating as eciently as possible. Remember, too much vacuum is just as bad as too little. Periodically check to make sure that the cleaner hose is securely attached to its suction source (i.e. skimmer, wall connector, etc.). Disconnect the cleaner hose from the skimmer/regulator valve prior to “backwashing”, in order not to restrict water flow.

When storing your cleaner, the hose sections must be stored straight. A coiled hose will create a memory in the hose that will impede the cleaner’s ability to move properly. Coiled hoses are not covered under the Hayward warranty. Use only original Hayward spare parts and hoses to ensure proper operation. Adjust the water return toward the center of the pool so water circulation does not interfere with the cleaner’s pool coverage capability.13 When the cleaner is out of the pool, always disconnect the leader hose from the cleaner.14 MAINTENANCE TIPS Check the condition of the “shoes, wings, and flaps” periodically. WEAR MARK GOOD SHOE WORN SHOE WEAR LINE Hayward is not responsible for damage caused by misuse of the cleaner or damage caused by worn or broken parts.15 Step 2 Step 1 Shoe Replacement:16 Wing Replacement: Step 1 Step 2 MAINTENANCE TIPS17 Step 3 Step 418 TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM CAUSES SOLUTION

Blockage of the cleaner throat Worn shoes Clear blockage Replace shoes See your pool dealer or servicer. Worn wings Improper cleaner model for application Replace wings Slow/no forward movement Lack of/improper water flow through cleaner Check water flow with flow gauge and adjust as per Step 5. Remove all air from cleaner head. Stop all air from entering the pool through the return lines. If cleaner head and hose are covered with fine bubbles, give the hose a good tug. This will release the air bubbles and allow the cleaner head to settle to the bottom of the pool until the hose is covered with bubbles again. Cleaner head “floats” Air trapped in the head The cleaner head is actually being pulled or lifted o the bottom of the pool by the cleaner hose, or return line flow –either at the surface or at the bottom of the pool –or both. Readjust return outlets to prevent water flow interfering with cleaner head and/or hose.19 Replace wings

PROBLEM CAUSES SOLUTION

Cleaner sticks at ladder, corners, etc. Improper water flow Check water flow with flow gauge and adjust as per Step 5. Hose too short Install additional hose sections per installation instructions. Worn shoes Replace shoes Worn wings Replace wings Steering failure 1. Check and clean rear screen, if necessary

2. Check to see that cone

gear is free of debris and rotates smoothly in both directions

3. Check steering program

and troubleshoot –then: a. clean, repair or replace gearbox b. check pod/A- frame connection and REPLACE IF NECESSARY. DO
